Easy Grow Info
About This Chili
Cayenne Long Slim produces thin, elongated chilies with smooth skin and a bright, sharp heat. Fresh green or red peppers are excellent in sautéed dishes and tempering, adding clean spice that blends easily into everyday cooking. As fruits mature, they dry readily, making them useful later for homemade chili powder or pantry use.
Productive plants set long clusters of slender chilies through warm weather, rewarding regular harvesting with continued growth.
Heat Level
Hot. Typically 30,000–50,000 Scoville Heat Units.
Clean, direct heat that builds steadily without overwhelming flavor.
Why We Grow It
We grow Cayenne Long Slim because it’s a dependable everyday chili that works first as a fresh kitchen pepper and later as an easy drying variety. Reliable in warm California gardens, it produces steadily through the season without needing much space.
